-------------------------------------

[~yunta] [~klion26] Thanks for your reply :)

_What caused the "/tmp" directory full?_
---
It may not be caused by Flink applications since other applications like 
MapReduce/Spark would run on the same Yarn cluster too. 
I think it's not safe to use "/tmp" directory since it's shared by other tasks. 
 Tasks, like the Flink TaskManager, could make use of its own working directory 
assigned by Yarn.

_Flink already set io.tmp.dirs as 'LOCAL_DIRS' in YARN_
---
This config can not solve the problem completely, since the third-party 
libraries used by users may still use "java.io.tmpdir" property.

There is similar discussion here:

>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Deployment / YARN
>    Affects Versions: 1.9.1
>            Reporter: Victor Wong
>            Priority: Major
>
> Currently, when running Flink on Yarn, the "java.io.tmpdir" property is set 
> to the default value, which is "/tmp". 
>  
> Sometimes we ran into exceptions caused by a full "/tmp" directory, which 
> would not be cleaned automatically after applications finished.
> I think we can set "java.io.tmpdir" to "{{{{PWD}}}}/tmp" directory, or 
> something similar. "{{{{PWD}}}}" will be replaced with the true working 
> directory of JM/TM by Yarn, which will be cleaned automatically.
